Denial of Service Vulnerability in ActiveRecord's PostgreSQL adapter
There is a potential denial of service vulnerability present in ActiveRecord's PostgreSQL adapter.
This has been assigned the CVE identifier CVE-2022-44566.
Versions Affected: All. Not affected: None.
## Fixed Versions
- 2.3.18.47 (Rails LTS, which is a paid service and not part of the rubygem)
- 3.2.22.34 (Rails LTS, which is a paid service and not part of the rubygem)
- 4.2.11.27 (Rails LTS, which is a paid service and not part of the rubygem)
- 5.2.8.15 (Rails LTS, which is a paid service and not part of the rubygem)
- 6.1.7.1
- 7.0.4.1
## Impact
In ActiveRecord < 7.0.4.1 and < 6.1.7.1, when a value outside the range for a 64bit signed integer is provided to the PostgreSQL connection adapter, it will treat the target column type as numeric. Comparing integer values against numeric values can result in a slow sequential scan resulting in potential Denial of Service.
## Releases
The fixed releases are available at the normal locations.
## Workarounds
Ensure that user supplied input which is provided to ActiveRecord clauses do not contain integers wider than a signed 64bit representation or floats.
## Patches
To aid users who aren't able to upgrade immediately we have provided patches for the supported release series in accordance with our maintenance policy 1 regarding security issues. They are in git-am format and consist of a single changeset.
